WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Local meeting -
I've been on a Trollope kick and I saw this come to MeetUp and then on to the Starbucks shelf so I stopped by and nabbed it!
After this sat around for about 8 years I finally got around to reading it. Took a while but it was totally worth every sprawling 800+ pages. The main plot is the court case of Orley Farm and if it was really left to young Lucius Mason 20 years previous to the start of the novel but that is really just the jumping off point for various other plots of lawyers and judges and witnesses and stray characters that wander in. Trollope is wonderful at creating all these diversions but never loosing the full thread. I really loved reading this and might have to restart my Trollope project.
